Schlein wants to copy Sánchez, but has forgotten growth

The election of Elly Schlein as secretary of the Democratic Party shifts the political axis of this party to the left. The programmatic platform presented in the primaries focuses on the issues of the fight against inequalities, rights, environmentalism, feminism, sustainable development (as opposed to growth tout court). Even if it is still too early to understand what the alliance policy will be, the first signs suggest an approach to the Five Stars and a move away from the Third Pole. If these developments were to be confirmed in the weeks to come, the strategy of the Democratic Party to return to govern the country would have significant consonance with the strategy that the current Spanish socialist leader Pedro Sánchez adopted in the second half of the last decade to bring the PSOE back to power .
